Gerontology

The Gerontology Program at the University of Pittsburgh has been conducting federally-funded research on critical issues related to health, aging, and family caregiving for the past 20 years.  Much of what is known about living with different illnesses has resulted from medical and psychological research such as that conducted in our Program.

As part of our mission, we have created a registry of individuals who are willing to be contacted for participation in future research studies on various issues.  We invite you to enroll in this Gerontology Program Research Registry.  Your enrollment would allow us to contact you in the future if we believe that you are eligible for a specific research study.  At that time, the study will be described to you and you will have the option of participating if you are eligible and interested.
